The word personality originates from the Latin word persona, referring to masks worn by theater performers to hide their identity or portray different roles.
Your persona, or personality, is unique to you. It’s a combination of the behaviors, emotions, thought patterns, and motivations that define us.
Research from the past few decades has pointed to the role of environment – including how we were raised – and our genetics in forming and shaping our personalities.
So, what is your personality?
Among your group of friends, are you considered the shy one who waits for others to make decisions?
Or, are you seen as the dominant one who is ready to take the lead?
Our personality test can help you find out your personality type. Answering these simple questions will give you a description of who you are and tell you how others see you.
Instructions
Answer each of the questions below honestly about yourself and we’ll score the quiz and let you know how others see you.

Jung and Briggs-Myers Personality Test
This free personality test will determine your personality type in four letters using Jung's typology, which was perfected by Myers, Briggs, von Franz and van der Hoop. Our test is one of several ways to determine your Jungian personality type that is similar, but not identical, to the MBTI (Myers-Briggs Type Indicator) ® MBTI), the Jung Type Indicator and related materials.
The IDR Labs Personality Test is the property of IDR Labs International.
Our test is one of the few free tests of this type that is statistically controlled and reliable. Despite this, please note that the test is only a kind of indicator that can only roughly determine your inherent qualities.
The Myers & Briggs Type Indicator and MBTI test trademarks are owned by the Myers & Briggs Foundation, the United States of America and other countries. The MBTI test was published by The Myers-Briggs. The Young Type Indicator is owned by Psytech International.
All personality tests, whether they are official tests such as the MBTI® (Myers-Briggs Type Indicator) and Jung Type Indicator tests, or free online tests such as this one, are merely indicators that can only tentatively determine your personality type. None of the tests can determine your personality type with absolute accuracy and reliability and replace a detailed study of the works of Myers, Briggs, von Franz, van der Hoop and Jung.
As the publisher of this free online personality test by Jung, Myers, Briggs, von Franz and van der Hoop, we have made every effort to ensure that this test is accurate, complete and reliable.
Like the "official" Jung typology tests and other professionally designed tests, our free online test has been statistically controlled and extensively reviewed to ensure maximum accuracy.
To create this test, we used the typology of psychological types of C. G. Jung presented in his work Psychological types and the typology of Isabelle Briggs Myers, co-author of the MBTI® test, which she published in her work Everyone has their own gift . In addition, van der Hoop's Mind Orientation and Character and Subconscious Mind also had a significant impact on the creation of this test.
This test is based on widely accepted theories, namely Jung, Meyers, von Franz, and van der Hoop's confirmed personality type theories, and not an approximate version of Jung's typology.
